Dropbox API and use Zapier to upload in youtube
I use zapier to upload the dropbox videos directly to the youtube automatically.
I use dropbox api and use http request to upload video from mobile/web. I want to get the uploaded youtube video URL in the response of video uploading. Is there a way to get the uploaded youtube link in to the backend?

The Dropbox API itself doesn't offer anything like this unfortunately. (It doesn't know about your Zapier integration when you're just uploading to Dropbox via the Dropbox API.)

Since Zapier, and not Dropbox, does the actual upload to YouTube, Dropbox doesn't have access to the YouTube URL. You may be able to write or configure something to get it from Zapier, but we can't offer support for Zapier as it's not made by Dropbox.
